How to play
- Each of you gets 6 cards. The card turned up (the kick) sets trumps.
- If you have the suit that was led, you must play that suit or a trump. If not, play anything.
- The highest card of the suit led wins, unless someone trumps.
- Points each hand: High (top trump dealt), Low (lowest trump dealt), Jack (whoever wins the Jack of trumps) and Game (most card points: Ten 10, Ace 4, King 3, Queen 2, Jack 1).
- The dealer scores for the kick: Ace 1, Six 2, Jack 3.
- This is a short two-player version. At the rum shop it's four players in partners.

Slow breathing calms the body and the mind. Sit comfortably, rest your hands in your lap, and follow the circle as it grows and shrinks.
Breathe gently and never strain. If you feel light-headed, stop and breathe normally.
